I'll have a look at it. For the moment I see that many
important things to do which are purely XEmacs:
installation difficulties, memory leaks, redundancies,
missing char classes etc. I'll be happy if that kind of
a barrier you mentioned will be left.

Nonewithstanding XEmacs must not sync up with bugs or
unconveniences as in commenting.
